This is the thread for Christian H. Kim Middle School English 3 Lesson 1: Our School News. Please share your contributions here. Be sure to check all contributions for spelling and punctuation errors before posting.

Lesson based around the conversation page. I spend time asking about the meanings of the words that are new and play a short game like speech bubbles or pictionary at the end to fill a whole class.

**EDIT** updated worksheet to remove superfluous "the"

Lesson 1 week 2: This is mostly ripped off from I'mstuckinglue but I've added a part about the different parts of a newspaper and I game where the students have to match up news stories with headlines and pictures.

TBH I didn't like the matching exercise because it takes a lot of time cutting out and handing out the stories and my students finished it in about 1 minute (I told them to put their hands up when finished and the fastest team wins some class points)

Here is a ppt for Lesson 1. Students are to prepare interview questions at the end of class and then the next class is used for interview each other. The students are supposed to think of 10 questions to ask another student. I use 10 min to do the textbook conversation, 15-20 min for the interview. and 10-15 for students to model their interviews to the class.

Modified some of the earlier posts on here.

PPT, Worksheet, Annoying Orange game (students love this! thanks)
